Yesterday saw the release of Dark Souls' Gamescon trailer, which showed a good bit of gameplay. Today Namco Bandai released a batch of screenshots to go with the trailer, and a handy piece of artwork that outlines the game's ten classes.

Some of the classes that we didn't get to try out at E3 (since they weren't available yet) are the hunter, thief, bandit and the deprived. When creating a character, first you choose the class, then customize the body and facial features. You also get a starting weapon and 'presents' to choose from. Perhaps in time you can buy clothes for the poor Deprived?

You can also see the classes and creation menus in the gallery linked below. Dark Souls releases in North America on October 4th and in Europe on October 7th.
